It looks like Glock’s big announcement at the SHOT Show (other than “Hey, we have a social network site!”) is the 30S pistol. I mentioned the rumors of this gun a few days ago, but I have now seen one. Essentially, the Glock 30S is a model 30SF frame with a model 36 slide attached to…
“The next generation of submachine gun is here,” states a SIG Sauer video demonstrating the all new SIG MPX. The SIG MPX is a new submachine gun that the company is expected to show off at next week’s SHOT Show. There are a number of features that really set this gun apart from others in…
Mere days ahead of the 2013 SHOT Show, we get out first glimpse at the Ruger Guide Gun. The new series of rifles are rugged, compact rifles weighing between 8 to 8.12 pounds. The guns are chambered in serious calibers: .30-06, .300 Win Mag, .338 Win Mag, .375 Ruger, .300 RCM and .338 RCM. When the…
HK announced the introduction of the HK45 Tactical to the civilian market. It looks like you will be able to get them in all sorts of tactical colors and with a threaded barrel. Probably the oddest thing about this product announcement is that the HK45 Tactical is shown in a photograph with a “dummy” sound…

The new SR1911 commander is a traditional 1911-style pistol that is slightly shortened in general parameters of…
The Ruger SR45 is now a reality. Just days ahead of the 2013 SHOT Show, Sturm, Ruger & Co announced the big bore addition to the company’s popular “SR” series of handguns. Chambered in .45 ACP, the new SR45 comes standard with 10-round magazines, giving the shooter a lot of firepower. Yet, Ruger claims the…
Well, the 2011 SHOT Show is closer than the 2010 Show, so I thought I would take a look at some of the most popular new guns of 2010. Popularity was determined based on Google keyword searches and forum posts that I read. So, yeah, this list is pretty arbitrary, but hey, it’s my list….
A few days ago, a photo leaked of a possible new tactical version of the Ruger Mini-14. At the time, I stated that it looked like a Mini-14 with the ATI stock on it. Well, that is exactly what it is. Ruger was showing the “new” Mini-14 at the 2009 Media Day at the Range….
